low latency/preemption

[laulist@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi All:

As I read it, the low latency kernel patch(es) only apply to kernel 2.4, 
and with kernel 2.6 the only option for
improving latency is kernel pre-emption.

Have I got this much right?

If so, is it better to use a patched 2.4 kernel than a 2.6 kernel with 
pre-emption?

TIA, Mick
